DOWNLOAD EBOOKIn nineteenth-century Britain the majority of Jewish believers in Christ worshipped in Gentile churches. Some attained ethnic and institutional independence. A few debated the implications of incorporating into their worship the observance of Jewish tradition, and advocated the theological and liturgical independence of Hebrew Christianity, characterised by opponents as the "scandal of particularity". Previous scholarship has documented several Hebrew Christian initiatives but this monograph breaks new ground by identifying almost forthy discrete institutions as components of a century-long movement. The book analyses the major pioneers, institutions and ideologies of this movement and recounts how, through identity negotiation, hebrew Christians - and also their Gentile supporters - prepared the way for the development in the twentieth century of Messianic Judaism.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKMany missions to the Jewish people, such as Jews for Jesus, use Romans 1:16 as a proof text to encourage the evangelisation of the Jewish people as a priority: 'to the Jew first, and then to the Greek' (Jewish Missional Priority). Is this interpretation of the text legitimate? After considering when this priority first appeared, the author exposes and evaluates the arguments commonly used to promote it. His thorough exegesis of Romans 1:16-17 ultimately resolves the question. He takes the opportunity to explore some possible eschatological implications developed from Romans 9-11 and the parables of Jesus. Will the first also be the last?

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis is the first published book-length treatment on Paul Tillich and Judaism, which is a neglected aspect of Tillich’s thought. It has three compelling features. First, pivotal biographical details show the importance of Judaism for Tillich, and that he ardently opposed anti-Semitism before WWII and after the Holocaust. Second, Tillich’s theological method is examined in key primary sources to show how he maintains continuity between Judaism and Christianity. The primary source analysis includes his 1910 and 1912 dissertations on Schelling, the 1933 The Socialist Decision, the 1952 Berlin lectures on “the Jewish Question,” and his final public lecture on the importance of the history of religion for systematic theology. Particular attention is paid to his dialectical and theological history of religion. Third, Tillich’s positive theology of Judaism contrasts sharply with the many complex, negative ways in which Judaism is portrayed in Western thought. This contributes significantly to our understanding the evolving history of Christian anti-Judaism.

Not illustrated. 1902 edition. Excerpt: ... or Christians, as missionaries, by distributing the scriptures and other books which the Censor authorizes, by quiet personal work in such exposition of the Word of God as is permitted in the Book Depot, by medical missions and schools, the societies can accomplish their end in some measure; while any denomination or congregation recognized by the State can devote itself to very definite work among the Jews without arousing opposition on the part of the State Church. Russian Jewish Missions had a unique beginning, being undertaken in the first instance by the Czar. Alexander I, who was more favorably disposed towards his Jewish subjects than were his successors, employed J. C. Moritz, a converted Russian Jew, as an evangelist among his brethren from 1817 to 1825. He met with much success, and many Jews were baptized into the Greek Church. In the year in which Moritz was commissioned, the London Jews' Society obtained from the Czar the assurance of his assistance in spreading the Gospel among the Jews of Russia, and a letter of protection for Rev. B. N. Solomon, who proposed to undertake this work. This was on the occasion of the visit of Rev. Lewis Way to Russia. In 1821 Alexander McCaul, whose "Old Paths" has been the means of the conversion of many Jews, undertook to establish a mission in Warsaw. He was most successful, so far as the Jews are concerned, but the opposition of the authorities made it necessary to retire to Germany in the following year. Concessions were soon obtained, and the work resumed with vigor, McCaul finding himself surrounded by seven assistants. Nicholas I. restricted the Mission to Poland, and in 1830 placed it under the Lutheran Church. Still it prospered, additions being made to the staff and...
